Powertrain mounting assembly 200 for motor vehicle, comprising first 110 and second 120 brackets and tether 130. First bracket 110 couples to powertrain component 222 of the vehicle, and second bracket 120 is coupled to a support frame member 212 of the vehicle. Powertrain component 222 is mounted on support frame member 212 by coupling first 110 and second 120 brackets together. Tether 130, which prevents power train component 222 and support frame member 212 from moving relative to each other during a collision, has first 130a and second 130b ends which are coupled to first bracket 110 and second bracket 120/support frame member 212 respectively. First 130a/second 130b ends of tether 130 may be cast or anchored to first 110/second 120 brackets respectively. First 130a and second 130b ends of tether may each have anchors for preventing removal of tether 130 from first 110 and second 120 brackets respectively.
